Not trying to be a dick or anything but you sure this isn’t Great Sand Dunes NP? The San Andres Mountains in White Sands run N-S, with the park on the eastern side, if this was sunset then the the mountains would be silhouetted by the sun behind them.

The mountains in Great Sands run the same direction, but the park is situated in the western slope, so alpine glow like this seems more realistic.

Willing to admit it if I am wrong though, just going with what I see.

It’s white sands at sunset I promise. I was just there last week when I took this. The mountain is Sierra Blanca Peak which may be the cause of your confusion.
